GINNY BELL MARCH 12, 1926 – Dec. 26, 2020
Laura Virginia (Ginny) Lotz Bell, died of natural causes December 26, 2020 at the age of 94 at The Retreat Healthcare in Rio Rancho, NM.
Ginny was born to Etha and Paul Lotz, on March 12, 1926 in Queens, New York. The second of three girls, Ginny grew up in Port Washington on Long Island, NY. Her brilliant, charismatic father, Paul Lotz, was a great influence in her life. A paint chemist in New York City, Paul was intrigued by the culture and geography of the southwestern United States and drove his family out west many summers in the early 1940’s to visit the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley. He befriended the Native American people, once suggesting and providing more durable paint for their Pueblo doors.
